The correct answer is D. Thomas Bewick

Step-by-step explanation:

Wood engraving is an artistic technique in which symbols, letters, images or drawings are created over the wood using ink, usually by using different methods such as relief printing. This technique was first developed during the 15th and 16th-century using woodcut; however, it was during the 18th century the technique was perfected by Thomas Bewick who used a special tool for engraving which allowed him to create vivid and detailed images such as the "Barn Owl" which is the image shown in the question. Thus, wood engraving like the one of the example was perfected by Thomas Bewick.
